Therapeutic gene targeting [PDF]
Gene Therapy, 1998 Gene targeting is the use of homologous recombination to make defined alterations to the genome. One of the possible outcomes of gene targeting is the accurate correction of genetic defects, and this would make it the ideal method of gene therapy for single gene disorder.

Gene Editing and Genotoxicity: Targeting the Off-Targets [PDF]
Frontiers in Genome Editing, 2020 Gene editing technologies show great promise for application to human disease as a result of rapid developments in targeting tools notably based on ZFN, TALEN, and CRISPR-Cas systems. Precise modification of a DNA sequence is now possible in mature human somatic cells including stem and progenitor cells with increasing degrees of efficiency.

The natural dietary genistein boosts bacteriophage-mediated cancer cell killing by improving phage-targeted tumor cell transduction [PDF]
, 2016 Gene therapy has long been regarded as a promising treatment for cancer. However, cancer gene therapy is still facing the challenge of targeting gene delivery vectors specifically to tumors when administered via clinically acceptable non-invasive ...

Lysyl oxidase drives tumour progression by trapping EGF receptors at the cell surface
Nature Communications, 2017 Lysyl oxidase is able to remodel the extracellular matrix and its expression correlates with poor prognosis. Here the authors show that this protein modulates trapping of the epidermal growth factor receptor at the cell surface, causing persistent ...

Flipping the cyclooxygenase (Ptgs) genes reveals isoform-specific compensatory functions1,2[S]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2018 Two prostaglandin (PG) H synthases encoded by Ptgs genes, colloquially known as cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2, catalyze the formation of PG endoperoxide H2, the precursor of the major prostanoids.

Transposon variants and their effects on gene expression in arabidopsis [PDF]
, 2013 Transposable elements (TEs) make up the majority of many plant genomes. Their transcription and transposition is controlled through siRNAs and epigenetic marks including DNA methylation.

A PCA3 gene-based transcriptional amplification system targeting primary prostate cancer. [PDF]
, 2015 Targeting specifically primary prostate cancer (PCa) cells for immune therapy, gene therapy or molecular imaging is of high importance. The PCA3 long non-coding RNA is a unique PCa biomarker and oncogene that has been widely studied.

Production and characterization of eggs from hens with ovomucoid gene mutation
Poultry Science, 2021 Ovomucoid is a major egg white protein which is considered as the most dominant allergen in chicken eggs. Owing to the difficulty of separating ovomucoid from egg whites, researchers have adopted genetic deletion for development of hypoallergenic eggs ...
